Hello,

(not sure whether this goes to design or ux, so I'm flooding both :)

LibO version 3.6.4.0+ (Build ID: 2f42a6c)
Xubuntu 12.04

Writer interface - Using the header (resp. footer) option in the UI

If I ask to delete an existing header using the "Header" button, I'm 
receiving a confirmation dialog informing that the header contents will 
be lost.

I feel that this behaviour is interfeering with the user workflow. IMO, 
the header deletion should be immediate (if the users asks for that, of 
course he knows that the contents will disappear!) so that the user can 
continue working on his document. But, of course, this operation should 
be undoable (which it is not currently).

Thanks for your comments,
